LOL...yes, I completely agree with your stovepipe comparison!

I know Modern Game Fowl will have the longest legs in proportion to their body :) http://www.mypetchicken.com/chicken-breeds/Modern-Game-B74.aspx

It's still a work in progress for us too :) The paint ended up taking a backseat to the chickens needing to move in, so for now, the paint has been put on hold (I did buy 2 reject gallon at Lowes for cheap though....one pink and one green). The girls really seem to love having all that room...

good idea to seperate her...I hadn't thought of that! Thank you! Hopefully it will heal my morning...I feel so bad for the little thing :(

Hello, I recevied some bantam chicks in the mail Thursday and a couple of them have had pasty butt. I cleaned one of them this morning, and now there are two red dots on its vent, and if I dab it with a wet cottonball there's a little blood on the cottonball. What is it and what should I do...

I agree.... I had one that would flip over onto its back the first 24-36 hours and now its fine.

We have our second hatch due tonight and ine of them arrived a little early :) boy is she a noisy one! LOL Tammy

We ended up with a total of 7 from yesterday and this morning from 9 eggs. I still have the other 2 eggs in the incubator "just in case" but there's no pips or anything. We now have 2 barnevelders, 2 brown leghorns, 2 dominiques, and 1 chocolate orpington bantam :) The two that didn't hatch...

Yikes! I'm glad they all hatched though! The one I dropped, dropped onto my kitchen floor... cracked and dumped onto my floor....definitely not going to hatch ;)

I'm so sorry :( I was unpacking some last night that I had reveived in that mail and dropped one...I felt terrible, and it hadn't even been put in the incubator!! But in your case with the heartbeat, I can understand why you got sick. Some things you're just better off not seeing :*( Tammy

You should see a wiggly black dot about the size of a beebee. If you go back a page or two on this post, I posted a video of one of my day 10 eggs :) By that time, they've become quite active!

I just waited until they fluffed up....for some it was just a couple of hours, others took longer (not sure why). We also had #7 when we woke up this morning! Another brown leghorn!

Wow! They're hatching like crazy here! We've had a total of 6 hatch today, and there's still three more eggs with pips! Here's some pics :) #6 - Barnevelder2 - Video of him hatching! I was so excited! #3 Barnevelder #4 Brown Leghorn #5 Chocolate Orpington Bantam Here's the...

Just got home and two of the Dominique chicks have hatched and one is already dry! Do I take the dry one out and put it in the brooder or wait? Happy dance!!!! Tammy

This is my first time hatching and I've gone a little overboard....I have close to 100 eggs total and I'd say about 75% are moving along nicely. Not bad for mailed eggs from what I understand.

We have our first pips on the 2 Dominique eggs! I'm so excited! How long does it usually take after they pip? I'm guessing about 24 hours? ~Tammy

I could see mine around day 3 or 4 :)

We went on lockdown Sunday night....babies due on the 17th! Very excited to have some new breeds: Barnvelders, Brown Leghorns, Chocolate Orp Bantams, and Dominiques :) Tammy

Pumpkin Husley egg that has been in the incubator for 10 days....just look at the little guy/gal go!
